FROM diapers to shapewear, Cynthia Rowley has been busy jazzing up one unseemly necessity after another. Now comes something everyone could use: 14 fashion-friendly Band-Aid designs, created in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson. Among them, strips of sequins, gold chains and lace, as well as square-cut bandages that look like jewels. Packaged in two different arty tins, the Band-Aids are a limited edition, and $1 from each sale at Cynthia Rowley stores will be donated to Design Ignites Change, which mentors high school students. As we see it, no pain, no gain.
